Thick and Easy Zucchini Soup
By: Mommy Diva

This is my spin on a quick, easy, healthy version of zucchini soup a friend of ours served at a party. This is a nice, thick soup — much like a split pea in consistency. Mediterranean flavor.
SERVES 6
Ingredients
- 6-8 zucchini, sliced (small to medium size)
- 1 large onion, chopped (or 2 medium onions)
- 2 (8 ounce) cans vegetable broth
- 3 garlic cloves
- 4 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Directions
1
Lightly saute zucchini, onions and garlic in a pan over medium heat.2
When half way done, add all spices and 1 can of broth and finish cooking until tender, but firm.3
Blend in blender, adding additional stock as needed, stopping when you have a thick, split pea consistency.4
Enjoy!

This is an awesome soup. Made exactly as written. It came out a nice thick and perfectly spiced soup. Very easy and fun to make. This is a wonderful soup for a chilly evening. I liked that the spices give it a kick and linger on your tongue way after your done eating. Heats you up from the inside 
I will definitely make this again. THANK YOU FOR SHARING! Your spin on your friends soup is marvelous. (Made for My 3 Chefs 08) ~V
